The Salt Room

Locally sourced. Cooked over fire.

Brighton’s Best Seafood Restaurant

Set on Brighton's seafront with uninterrupted views of the West Pier, The Salt Room is one of the city’s leading seafood restaurants - built around fire, flavour and a room that knows how to have a good time. Newly reimagined from the ground up, The Salt Room has reopened for a new chapter by the sea.

The same bold cooking that earned our reputation: the finest local seafood, charcoal-grilled and served with precision. A wine list designed to match every dish. Cocktails worth lingering over. A terrace that belongs to the last light of the day.

New space. Same salt air. The Salt Room is back.

The bottom tier includes fresh oysters in their shells, scallops served in their natural fan shells topped with herbs, and a central white bowl containing a seafood salad.

Seafood To Share

Whole fish, charcoal-grilled on the bone. Shellfish platters piled with the season's best catch. Sharing plates that bring people together - and make every occasion feel like a celebration by the sea.

Quality seafood with spectacular seafront views

The Salt Room is Brighton’s premier seafood restaurant, known for cooking over charcoal and sourcing the best local produce from the South Coast.

Our menu is built around fresh fish, shellfish and carefully selected meats – all cooked over fire for depth, flavour and simplicity.

The bar is just as considered. Seasonal cocktails, an extensive wine list and a terrace that comes alive from day to night. This is coastal dining – elevated, energetic and unmistakably Brighton.

Our Menus

Our seaside venue is the best restaurant in Brighton to enjoy sustainable, local produce. 

Our menu is shaped by what arrives with the tide – wild and naturally harvested fish, selected each day for freshness, sustainably sourced shellfish from the South Coast, alongside vibrant vegetable dishes and prime cuts from the Lake District.

Cooked over charcoal with skill and care, our bold flavours are influenced by the Mediterranean, South America and Asia – always rooted in the provenance of our coastline.

The glass sits on terracotta floor tiles, catching a dramatic diagonal beam of bright afternoon sunlight that casts a long shadow to the bottom left.

Our Drinks

A drinks list as carefully considered as the menu. Crisp coastal whites, elegant rosés, Champagne by the glass and seasonal cocktails designed for a seafront terrace.

Every pour is chosen to bring out the best in what’s on your plate.

From aperitivo on the terrace to a long evening at the bar – the Salt Room sparkle begins the moment you sit down.
